Competitors in the gas monitoring industry differentiate
themselves on the basis of their sensor technology, product
quality, language support, service offerings, sales
capabilities, cost and time to market. An emerging
differentiator is the ability to manage data for long term
exposure records and incident management. We believe we compete
strongly in each of these areas and consider ourselves an
industry leader in the design, development, marketing and
manufacture of toxic gas monitoring devices. In particular, we
believe our ability to develop products that integrate different
chemical detection techniques, such as photoionization
detectors, electrochemical sensors for specific toxic chemicals
and combustible gas detectors, along with communication
technologies that allow wireless data transfer, provide us with
a competitive advantage. In addition, we believe our single user
interface, training and support materials are a valuable
resource for our distributors and end-users, which make our
products more attractive to customers.

Many of our gas detection competitors, however, have longer
operating histories, larger customer bases, greater brand
recognition and significantly greater financial and marketing
resources than us. In addition, some of our competitors may be
able to devote greater resources to marketing and promotional
campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing policies
and/or
devote more resources to technology and systems development.
